Judges Ok Free Speech Cages At Democrat Convention

The Democrats like to flirt with the hippies and 9/11 truthers, but they don’t want them stinking up their convention.  And now they’ve got the law on their side.

And I don’t totally disagree with the ruling or the Democrats on this as the 1st amendment was never intended to make disrupting other people’s free speech and peaceful assemblage legal.  Though there’s got to be a more sensitive way to handle this than herding people into cages).

All that being said, however, I have to marvel at the hypocrisy on display here.  After all, it was the Democrats who gave Code Pink tickets to heckle the President at his last inauguration.  It was the Democrats who gave Cindy Sheehan a ticket to go in and disrupt the State of the Union address.  It’s liberal college students all over the country who bum rush/throw pies at conservative speakers who are on stage speaking at their universities.

I guess that sort of thing is all well and good as long as the nuts are targeting people on the right.
